New DPTs (f.e. 9)

[Mmaaxxiimm]

Hi,

First of all thanks for the work on this wonderfull integration.
I want to ask if you're going to support new DPTS. I would need DPT9.001 for the motors of my floor heating circuits.

If not, how would you recommend to implement this? F.e. A yaml configuration in parallel doesn't seem very clean to me?

KIND REGARDS

Hi 👋!

What exact DPTs are you missing? Are you talking about 9 different DPTs or DPT9 (https://github.com/XKNX/xknx/blob/main/xknx/dpt/dpt_9.py)?

In what context would you like to use it? Home Assistant?

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply!

Talking about DPT 9.001
F.e. For temperature, or the % that a motor for my floor circuit is opened.

I'm indeed using this project in Home Assistant via the KNX integration

Maybe it's already supported in this Python repo, but not yet in the Home Assistant frontend? https://github.com/XKNX/knx-frontend

Im not sure how you'd like to use it in HA, but afaik all DPT9 types are supported - and if one was not, you can BC always reach for the generic "9" as those all decode similar.
Those are available as sensor or number entities and also for specific attributes of complex entities (eg. climate).

Oh, now I see... the sensor platform isn't supported via UI yet. You'll have to do it via Yaml. See https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/knx/#sensor
